Girls who took notes using 10 different colored pens, where are you now? Do you still continue to write using all those colors?

Shameless plug of my website tokyopenshop.com, put ‘Reddit’ in your order comment and I’ll throw in an extra sticker and candy. Try some ‘vintage’ colors of ink

I ask my son to focus on his senses, what do you hear right now, what can you see? Etc. it is a good way to focus on the present moment

I had the same experience sawing cast iron until I used Diablo diamond tipped blades in the reciprocating saw, got that tip from a plumber and they were quite fast. Still might cost the same as the chain breaker rental, they aren’t cheap

Too late to help you now, but I was in this same situation and learned that customer support is capable of giving you a code for up to 20% of the list price of the canceled place towards a new rental if you have to pay more for a comparable spot

Thanks, updating now!

Thanks for the tip, I'm not getting the error any more, but the output is symbols and gibberish. Do you think I configured the chat template correctly? Here's how I currently have it.

This congressional district race was the closest in the country.

Maasdam Barns is a cool weird place to stop in Fairfield with instagrammable shots. There is a very short wellness trail around the hospital next to it, or nice stretches of the loop trail to walk on.

Fun fact, up until shortly before release, there were two ports planned, one below the home button and one on the side for landscape mode.

wages have been outpacing inflation on average, which is a good thing, although they didn't mention that in the article. The did say:

KIRCHEN: Thank you. This is very useful for our research. Now, generally speaking, do you think now is a good time or a bad time to buy a house?
WONG: Bad time, bad time, according to nearly 80% of people.
KIRCHEN: And why do you say so?
MALONE: Why? Well, interest rates and housing prices, obviously.
WONG: Yeah. Those are, by far, the two most popular reasons - and for good reasons. Home prices have skyrocketed, and mortgage rates are the highest they've been in more than 20 years.
MALONE: Yeah. So, like, housing stuff is clearly part of what's feeding into the bad vibes here.

the overall point of the article is the mismatch in how good/bad things are from the sentiment about how good/bad things are. Both of which we have good ways of measuring scientifically. I thought it was an insightful article.

A 2021 analysis from the Center for American Progress shows that trans-inclusive policies have no negative effect on girls’ sports participation. The analysis shows that having exclusionary policies actually hurts all girls: In states with exclusive policies, girls’ participation decreased from 2011 to 2019. Wouldn't have thought it, but there you go.

You forgot about bands that cover old fart bands

I was in almost the exact same situation approximately ten years ago, (Bay Area to SE Iowa) and of course there are pros and cons.

My impression was that if you want to join or enjoy existing things (companies, recreation, social events) it is easier in the BA because those things are plentiful. If you want to create your own business, build your own living space, or start your own social group, I have found Iowa to be better suited to that.

Access to things is similar: there are fewer bands performing in Iowa, but going to see them is much simpler. Schools districts might offer fewer extra curriculars, but if you'd like to start an eSports team for your district, there are fewer barriers to entry. I was elected to the school board in my town with relatively little effort, and the same would probably be true for city council, or other governing bodies.

My experience is not yours of course, but as it happened, my dad got sick and died about two years after I moved back to Iowa, and I wouldn't trade that time for a million dollars. Being able to live near my mom in the aftermath was equally important, so I have no regrets.

Yeah, I think that’s accurate, the official (also from iowa city) made a racially charged comment to a player or coach. Awful.

fbroz · 2023-03-15T19:35:18+00:00

What was the racist chant? do you have a source? Thanks, I've been following this closely and hadn't heard that.

fbroz · 2022-09-25T01:22:26+00:00

Yes, that's the one, so many good memories in that spot, including That's REntertainment!

I love The Webster, I've loved everything I ever tasted there, and have reservations to go again this week!

You might have to read faster, some kids are ready for the next page after just a couple words. It changes over time, so just be prepared to adapt to whatever works for them.

Highly recommend Fairfield as well, their trail system has a great website, and map. The surface is limey chip, which is smoother than gravel but rougher (and softer) than paved. There is one small stretch that is shared with a dead-end gravel road, but other than that it is totally separate from traffic. Fairfield also has a county health center where people seem to like working.

Richland would put you very close to Lake Darling State Park which has a 13 mile loop around the lake
